**** Spoiler Alerts for It's a Wonderful Life (you've seen it) Christmas Story (you've seen it) and Dinner for One (watch it)****

In the first episode that will become a Christmas tradition for the Movies with John family, Tom and John watch three canonical Christmas films and talk about three classic films. Before they get into it, they talk about Fargo and a very Murray Christmas, as well as Global Warming, Blood and Oil and Wicker Park. They next go over the disappointing A Christmas Story and discuss opportunity cost and why the shine has fallen off from this film. Moving to It's a Wonderful Life, they revel in what is a true Christmas classic that holds up even in the face of time and the onslaught of decades. They wrap up with Dinner for One, a classic in its own, strange right. Have a great holiday season dear listeners, you can contact us @movieswithjohn on twitter or at movieswithjohn@gmail.com.
